The filter options so that we don't have to rely solely on albums and folders.

There not being a tracking ability in the portals.

The Canva integration makes it easier for me to create things without having to download and upload. It also helps me view assets in one locations. I helps with sharing ability within the organization. Along with being able to search our assets and easily find them.
Enjoyable, Easy-to-Navigate UX That Significantly Improves My Workflow
What do you like best about the product?
User experience is enjoyable and easy to understand. I have no problems finding what I'm looking for on there. A good portion of my work is looking for photos so this has improved my workflow significantly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the page can load slowly or be lagging
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto solves my issue of needing to access a large library of photos and being able to search for specific photos based on key words
Budget-Friendly DAM with Smooth Adobe Integration
What do you like best about the product?
Out of all the other DAM program, Canto's within our budget and offers integration with Adobe products
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe the way it needs to load? I wish it was page by page
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a DAM program because our old one wasn't working anymore
Useful for Content Organization, but Setup Challenges
What do you like best about the product?
I like the tagging and facial recognition features in Canto. The AI works fairly well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The facial recognition process is a little more complicated to use than Google Photos. It can’t do facial recognition well from video, which is annoying when video is the only content I have of that person. The initial uploading process was pretty rough, with crashes partway through, requiring restarts. The setup was not easy with initial uploading failing multiple times and needing a lot of Canto support.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canto for storing, organizing, and sharing photos and videos. It helps me organize and find content more easily, maximizing existing content.
Effortless Media Management, Stellar User Experience
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Canto allows us to share assets with our network of distributors and sales team. I appreciate the ease of search in Canto, which makes finding what we need quick and simple. The portals are a strong feature, as they let us easily control our media all from one central hub, instead of having to house things in multiple folders. Also, the initial setup of Canto was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love if the backend looked different than the customer facing portal. The PDF and file viewers could use some work, they're a little clunky and don't always work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto allows us to share assets with our network, and its portals make it easy to control media from one hub, simplifying organization.
Good Asset Management with Room for AI Improvement
What do you like best about the product?
I use Canto for managing our company's product images and marketing materials. It provides one place for all of our assets, which is really convenient. For the most part, I think it's pretty easy to use. The initial setup was fairly easy because my boss and I had used it at a previous company.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot actually. The AI does not work at all for us. Are images are mainly stuffed animals, and AI does not recognize them at all. It created problems for us and we actually turned the AI assistant off. It also lags. When we upload images, they don't often show up in the album we put them in. That can be frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canto to manage our company's product images and marketing materials, giving us one place for all our assets.
Concise Organization and Robust Permission Controls
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to organize everything concisely, and to be able to seamlessly toggle permissions
What do you dislike about the product?
There is definitely a learning curve and can be hard to explain to others -- easier to do it myself at the end of the day
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto helps us immensely provide portals and items for our varying partners
Powerful, Easy-to-Use DAM with Fast AI Search
What do you like best about the product?
Overall, I love Canto and its functionality. The design, capabilities, and features are a great fit for our needs, as well as for our team members and clients. I especially love the AI capability that lets me search for a photo based on characteristics and descriptions, and I really appreciate the quick turnaround time on searches. As part of the admin team, I also get a back-end view of the interface, and I value how simple it is to use and how easy it is to teach others to self-serve what they need.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far I haven't experienced any downsides; however, we are new to Canto. I think the one component I'd love to see is better integration to Canva.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have multiple contract agencies who do work for us from a production perspective - both asset creation, brand development, and photography/videography. We also have an internal team who does some of this work. It was a challenge to know where assets were, who owned them, how to transfer them, use them, what the copyrights were, and more...so Canto has really come in and helped us streamline this which has been amazing.
Empowers Digital Asset Management, Needs Better Search Functionality
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can use the AI search functionality to sort through a large archive of images. I like that I can easily create albums and share them. Canto allows us a safe outlet to share our assets, knowing we can add expiration dates and limitations to protect ourselves and our assets. Canto has made it incredibly easy for us to share files comfortably.
What do you dislike about the product?
I get really frustrated when looking for something very specific within a folder. For example, if I'm looking for visuals of sheep, I'll search 'sheep', our library comes up - but then when I want to sort my files by video - it defaults me back to a large archive of files. It doesn't stay within the current search criteria. So, I find that difficult. Especially when I know we have videography of sheep in our archive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Canto to save and share our digital assets, making it our go-to archive for images, videos, and more. It provides a safe way to share assets with expiration dates and limitations, which protects us and simplifies sharing tasks.
A solid hub for shared company assets
What do you like best about the product?
Makes digital asset management easy across departments and improves collaboration.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest downside is adoption. Canto works best only when everyone consistently uploads and uses it (not desktops/shared drives).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Canto gives us one centralized place for portal access to news media, internal digital asset management, and shared assets across departments, so teams can quickly find, download, and use the correct, approved files without chasing links or digging through folders.
